Quotes

Snoop Dog (on why he isn't a fan of Europe): I didn't see any dogs or cats, but all the food looked like those animals. That threw me off. (edit)
Snoop Dogg: (on his reality TV show) This is a chance for me to show people that I do things other than go to jail, smoke weed and go to jail. (edit)
Snoop Dogg: (revealing his anger after Oprah Winfrey labelled him a misogynist) I don't like her no more. I really was offended, because I kind of like her. Liked her. I'm very articulate, very intellectual. She didn't even get a chance to even know me. (edit)
Snoop Dogg: Tha Blue Carpet Treatment is my presentation to the world on what it means to be the King of the West Coast. I really worked extra hard on making this one perfect and got the best of the best among my homies in the music game-Skateboard P, Timbaland, R. Kelly, D'Angelo...and you know when me and Dr. Dre get together-it's a monster. (edit)
Snoop Dogg: (About 2Pac) Sometimes, if you're lucky, someone comes into your life who'll take up a place in your heart that no one else can fill, someone who's tighter than a twin, more with you than your own shadow, who gets deeper under your skin than your own blood and bones. (edit)
